In this 21st century, technological and social changes have never been
as rapid as before, and educative practices must evolve and innovate
to keep up. What is being done by educators today to prepare future
global citizens? What are the skills and competencies that will be
required by our students? What changes in how we approach education
might need to be made? This book presents a modern focus on some
significant issues in teaching, learning, and research that are
valuable in preparing students for the 21st century. The book
discusses these issues in four sections. The first section presents
contemporary, innovative curriculum and pedagogical practices that are
relevant for the 21st century. This also includes how social
networking has an integrated role within current educative practice.
The next section then explores issues and current research around
motivation and engagement, and how these are changing in this era of
technological and social change. The third section presents debates
around inclusion and social contexts, both global and local. Finally,
the fourth section explores current discourses in regard to
internationalisation and globalisation and how these are being
considered in educational research. The book is an important
representation of some of the work currently being done for these
rapidly changing times. It will appeal to academics, researchers,
teacher educators, educational administrators, teachers and anyone
interested in preparing students for a modern and globally
interconnected world.
